At just 11 weeks old, Buck may be tiny, but his determination is absolutely enormous. He arrived at H.A.L.O. as a tiny stray suffering from a severe upper respiratory infection. Both of his little eyes had ruptured, he was anemic, and he was in heartbreaking condition. It was hard to imagine this little guy pulling through—but Buck had other plans.
Thanks to the dedicated care of the H.A.L.O. team and Buck’s incredible will to fight, he’s made an amazing recovery. We expected he might lose one or even both eyes, but after seeing a specialist, we learned he has even regained some vision in his more severely affected eye!
Buck’s future family should be prepared to keep eye medication on hand and understand that he may need additional treatment down the road, but right now he’s feeling great and ready to enjoy kitten life.
And his personality? It’s every bit as wonderful as his comeback story. Buck is playful, affectionate, and full of determination. This sweet little survivor has a heart as big as his courage, and he’s ready to find a family to love him forever. Stop by and meet Buck—you might just discover your newest best friend.
